Now called the Daily Bugle Building, the office complex is forty-six stories tall, and is capped by the ''Daily Bugle'' logo in letters on the roof. There are loading docks in the rear of the building, reached by a back alley.

However, the Editor-in-Chief, "Robbie" Robertson, the only subordinate to Jameson who is not intimidated by him, has worked to moderate it. More positively, the newspaper has also published important exposés of political corruption and organized crime in the city, and also takes a strong stance in favor of mutant rights, which has led to its being targeted by various criminals and hate groups. Due to declining circulation, Jameson has conceded to Robertson's objections and has created a special feature section of the paper called '' The Pulse'', which focuses on superheroes. In addition, the paper also intermittently ran a
